    Those are super cool @Stork !

    Nothing as cool as Cathy's, but i have had a few as part of the collection over the years.

    Canada 1967 Diving Goose next to a regular Goose. :)
    it has to be a minimum of 45 degrees of rotation to be recognized as THE DIVING GOOSE.
    there are some around with lesser rotation.

    @YQQ Neat!. Is there another "diving goose" error for that year? I remember seeing a pretty cool example in the past where it was a double-strike with a rotation where you could see both the correct impression and the turn.

    I crossed paths with this one once.

    That is very cool. Do you know where it is now?

    @Yorkshireman, I do not. I listed it on eBay for a friend and sold it several years ago. I just posted because I thought someone here would like seeing it. I like circulated errors.

    A different sort of error.

    Sorry for the dark pics. I need new lighting.
